     1  grant exemption from all taxation beginning with the date of acquisition

     6  discretion, provide for the refund of those  taxes  paid  including  the
     7  amount of any taxes held in escrow pursuant to the sale of such property
     8  and cancel taxes, fines, penalties, or interest remaining unpaid.
